Let's start episode 736 of Secrets of Organ Playing Podcast. This question was sent by Alessandro and he writes:I am writing to you to ask for advice about my situation as a passionate organist with health problems. I suffer from diabetes, therefore I have problems with the pedalboard to find the notes due to the decrease of the sense of position, typical of the disease. I also have vision problems with difficulty reading the three staves at the same time. I had built in the past, a good repertoire, even done some recitals. Now I feel like I have lost everything. I was already a slow learner, now it takes me a long time to study a piece. In a month I would like to show a friend the first movement of the Eb major Trio Sonata, and the Dorian Toccata by Bach, but the effort and the mistakes are so many, and, if I think that I mastered these pieces, I get discouraged and go days without practicing. I would almost like to start studying (or revising) the organ from scratch because I really like it a lot. I wanted to ask you if you have any advice or any of your courses to propose to me, that would help me rebuild a repertoire gradually and with confidence. (Years ago I completed your course about first sight reading). Thank you for your attention. Greetings Alessandro

For generations, the only sounds at a Major League ballpark were the crowd, the crack of the bat, or the slap of a ball smacking a glove. Then in 1941, we got organs, and an historical journey began. With music, fans were more engaged than ever... and in 1970, one woman joined the Chicago White Sox and brought her musical skill and razor wit to the keys. Thanks to Nancy Faust, inventor of the walk-up song, baseball changed forever. Learn with us, laugh with us, deal with fluctuating E with us. We get into Sinners and more in the MouthGarf Report... and of course, we play some I See What You Did There!Sources:https://www.wbur.org/onlyagame/2016/04/30/organ-mlb-historyhttps://www.mlb.com/cut4/the-complete-history-of-the-walk-up-songhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Fausthttps://www.mlb.com/news/organist-nancy-faust-returning-to-play-selected-games-for-white-soxPlease give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts! Want to ask us a question?

Je kar hudo, če si česa močno želiš, pa nimaš denarja, da bi si to privoščil. In potem se je treba znajti, tako kot si je zamislil organist. In čeprav je zaključek pripovedke pozitiven, saj sta naša junaka prenehala z laganjem, se mi zdi, da njun namen ni ravno pošten.

Let's start episode SOPP729 of Secrets of Organ Playing Podcast. This question was sent by Nick and he writes:Hi there! Been following your site for a while (and even bought a few pieces). I just recently stepped up to learn organ for my church – it's a Catholic traditional Latin church, so I'm being asked to play hymns, interludes, and to accompany chant when I can. It's been a while since I've been at the keyboard – so I've started myself over in theory books (currently in book 4 of a 10 book series) and am doing my best to start to learn pedals. I've been working with a local teacher here who is a concert organist and we've been going through the New Oxford Organ Method book along with Flor Peeters' Little Organ Book. I recently saw that you all have the total organist course and I'm interested – however I also don't want to make the mistake of grabbing too many resources. I'm emailing to get some insight into the course – is there a way it would be able to help me develop my skills faster than where I'm at now? Or, would there be a course or two that you'd recommend for purchase that would help me? Thanks for a great website – I've been enjoying the content so far (and used your Laetare Sunday prelude before Mass this year – so thank you for that!) God bless,Nick

Interpreten: Stefan & Daniel Gottfried Label: gottfried music EAN: 4069493128086 Haben Sie sich vielleicht auch schon einmal gefragt, was in Wiener Kirchen abends und nachts passiert, wenn die Türen und Tore verschlossen sind? Zugegeben, meistens gar nichts. Aber hin und wieder finden sich Musikerinnen und Musiker mit ihren Tontechnikern und einem Haufen Technik-Equipment ein und produzieren tolle Aufnahmen. Wie jene von Stefan und Daniel Gottfried, entstanden in der Wiener Jesuitenkirche. Michael Gmasz hat auch dazu wieder die weiterführenden Infos. Mit Debussy und Ravel …  ins Kino – so lautet der etwas ungewöhnliche Titel unserer dieswöchigen CD-Empfehlung. So ungewöhnlich der Titel und die Stückauswahl, von den beiden Genannten hin zu Nino Rota, John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Bernard Herrmann und dem Schlager Mona Lisa von Evans und Livingston, so ungewöhnlich mutet auf den ersten Blick auch die Besetzung an – Saxophon und Orgel. Doch die beiden Brüder Stefan Gottfried, der Saxophonist, und Daniel Gottfried, der Organist, musizieren schon seit Jahren miteinander und beweisen nun auch auf CD ein erstes Mal, wie gut die beiden Instrumente harmonieren. Sämtliche Werke auf dieser CD sind eigens für die Besetzung Saxophon und Orgel arrangiert, mit den französischen Impressionisten Claude Debussy und Maurice Ravel haben sich die Gottfried Brüder Musik ausgesucht, die schon selbst Bilder im Kopf entstehen lässt, noch bevor es den Kinematographen und erste Filmmusiken gegeben hat. So beginnt die CD mit dem Nachmittag eines Fauns schon so, als hätte es Debussy nie anders gedacht. Mit dem Solosaxophon, dem bald darauf die Orgel einen misterioso Teppich legt, fast wie bei einer Herrmann'schen Filmmusik. Ganz andere Farben dann bei der ersten Arabeske und der Sonatine von Maurice Ravel. Stefan Gottfried wechselt immer wieder zwischen Alt- und Sopransaxophon, während Daniel im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes alle Register der modernen Späth-Orgel in der Wiener Jesuitenkirchen zieht. Apropos Hermann, seine Psycho Filmmusik eröffnet den zweiten Teil der CD, bei dem dann tatsächlich das Kino im Mittelpunkt steht. Herrlich hier vor allem die Suite zusammengestellt und arrangiert aus Ausschnitten von Nino Rotas legendärer Filmmusik zu Francis Ford Coppolas Paten-Trilogie. (mg)
